Haven't made my mind up what to get.

My old Trakker One is bent and knackered.

Been looking at Aqua one in DPM (size undecided yet)

Other choices please lads Don't want cheapo rubbish but also not spending more than £65-70

Thx 🙏

TA one rolls up quite compact for a retainer.
I use the ESP ones aswell they're decent.not sure what they cost now I'm sure I paid sub £50.

This year I started using the TA 'All-In-One' sling and really rate it. It's a bit different in that it only has one floatation bar which is removable and then you can use it as an 'old school' weigh sling or even as a sack, covers all eventualities.

I use the ESP one.
Really rate it and it's a fair price, unlike the Trakker and Fox ones IMO

I've got the Aqua standard sized one and think it's really good, the material is like Bobby material with mesh at the bottom, it dries out really quickly after it's been used which I find really handy. There are reflective strips on the top too which is nice.

Although I've had fish up to 47lb in it I'm thinking of getting the XL size one too for the larger fish.

I attach a mini H Block Marker onto my slings just in case the unthinkable were to happen.
